## What it is
Graphpack is a zero-config CLI tool for building GraphQL servers, bundling webpack, Babel, nodemon, and Apollo Server under the hood. It provides live reloading, a GraphQL Playground IDE, SDL schema imports, and TypeScript support out of the box.

## Use cases
- spin up a graphql server with zero configuration
- develop a graphql api with live reload
- build a production-ready graphql server bundle
- use graphql imports in sdl schema files
- prototype a graphql api with a built-in playground
- write graphql resolvers in typescript or es modules

## When to choose
- you want a graphql server running in seconds without config
- you want live reload and playground during api development
- you want sdl schema imports and es module support out of the box

## When to avoid
- you need fine-grained control over your server setup or middleware
- you need a production framework with subscriptions, auth, or federation built in
- you need a tool that is actively maintained - the last release was in 2021
